Have you ever wanted to live on your own private island? Now is your chance. This 10.71+/- acre island property in Berkeley County, South Carolina offers a rare mix of privacy, natural setting and ready-to-build infrastructure, located between Moncks Corner and Goose Creek.The property consists of approximately 4.30 acres of upland and 6.41 acres of wetland. The wetland acreage surrounds the homesite with natural Lowcountry habitat and creates the island setting that sets this tract apart. The upland portion is mainly wooded, providing privacy and natural cover. Near the front of the lot, a cleared area offers a ready homesite, so you can start planning your build without a full land-clearing project.Much of the major site work and utility setup that slows down many rural land purchases is already done. Electric service, city water and two septic systems are on the lot. Having two septic systems in place adds flexibility for a buyer planning a primary residence along with a guest house or other secondary structure, subject to county approval. Access to the property is provided by a deeded right of way. The location is a big part of the value. The property sits between Moncks Corner, the Berkeley County seat, and Goose Creek, in one of the fastest-growing areas of the Charleston region. There is a lot of development around this property, and the US 52 corridor connecting Goose Creek and Moncks Corner continues to see growth. That puts shopping, dining and services close by while the property itself keeps a secluded, natural setting. Downtown Charleston, Summerville and North Charleston are all within a reasonable drive. Outdoor recreation in the area is hard to beat. Lake Moultrie, the Cooper River, Old Santee Canal Park and the Francis Marion National Forest are all within easy reach for fishing, boating, paddling and hiking. Island properties with utilities already in place are rarely available in Berkeley County, especially this close to Moncks Corner and Goose Creek. If you are looking for a private homesite in the Lowcountry with the hard work already done, this 10.71± acre Berkeley County island property deserves a close look.
